Hypersonix continues to make strides in Brisbane, with CEO Matt Hill joining QLD Treasurer David Janetzki at the Australian British Chamber of Commerce Lunch to discuss defence investment and manufacturing capability within the region.

The conversation centred on Hypersonix's role in building sovereign capability here in Queensland - and how that capability positions Australia to manufacture and work alongside our AUKUS partners.

Matt also met with Trade and Investment Queensland CEO Justin McGowan to further discuss Hypersonix's progress. Our longstanding partnership with the Queensland Government has enabled us to continue supporting the priorities shaping Australia’s defence manufacturing base.

It was a pleasure to welcome Ministry of Defence (UK) Team Hypersonics representatives to our Carole Park HQ. The team were invited to tour our facility and meet directly with the engineers building our next-generation hypersonic aircraft, seeing first-hand what we’re developing here in Australia.

Hypersonix is actively engaged with the UK MoD across several hypersonic programs, working together to accelerate development and provide the testing capabilities needed for responsive missile and defence applications. Collaborations like this are critical to strengthening our defensive position, sharing information, and building relationships that make it all possible.

We're grateful to host the team and look forward to continuing to strengthen AUKUS capabilities together.

Hypersonix was proud to participate in Defence Catalyst, facilitated by the Australian British Chamber of Commerce at Australia House in London, where CEO Matt Hill was invited to deliver keynote remarks on the 14th and 16th of July 2026.

Matt outlined how hypersonics in Europe have moved from research curiosity to funded priority, with NATO’s Deep Precision Strike initiative committing $50 billion over the next decade to long‑range precision weapons led by the UK. He emphasised that credible deterrence now requires real, deployable hypersonic capability to deliver a new age of conventional deterrence - via systems that can hold strategic, in-depth targets at persistent risk through speed and range.

A core theme of the keynote was “if we fight together, we should build together”, referring to the Australia–UK industrial corridor as a force multiplier, not a supply‑chain risk.

Hypersonix embodies this model end‑to‑end with Australian sovereign design and manufacturing, close collaboration with international partners, and participation in the UK Ministry of Defence's Hypersonic Technologies & Capability Development Framework (HTCDF), backed by UK and European capital. As the UK convenes allies around Deep Precision Strike, our mission is to bring proven hypersonic technology, test capacity and industrial depth that shorten the path to a fielded European capability this decade.

Matt closed with a simple message to partners and allies: "In Ankara, the UK and Europe committed $50 billion to strike at range. The technology to do it at Mach 7 is already here, built by an ally. Built by Hypersonix. Ready to build together. Ready to Fly Faster.”

Furthermore, Samuel Hayes, Hypersonix's Director of Regulatory Affairs and member of the Australian British Chamber of Commerce's Subcommittee for Defence, chaired two panels covering rapid developments in autonomous systems and future air power. These conversations explored where enabling technologies, such as AI and quantum, pose technological, operational, and ethical challenges - and how we must always endeavour to preserve human centrality in command.

Hypersonix is pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with North Wind - a significant step forward in advancing hypersonic ground and flight testing under the AUKUS framework.

The collaboration will leverage Hypersonix’s hydrogen-fuelled, scramjet-powered hypersonic platforms and North Wind’s advanced test infrastructure to support the development, demonstration and evaluation of next-generation hypersonic technologies.

At this year’s annual AmChams of Asia Pacific Washington Doorknock, CEO Matt Hill and Chief Operating Officer Nicholas Lindsay connected with regional business leaders to engage and start shaping initiatives in the USA that impact the Indo-Pacific. These discussions are essential to understanding and influencing the policy landscape within which Hypersonix operates.

The delegation’s focus on Indo-Pacific security, trade, and strategic alignment maps directly to the environment in which our technology must be developed, tested, and deployed. Hypersonix is grateful to continue to be part of such conversations and welcomes further collaboration toward a common goal of a more stable, secure, and strategically competitive region.

We’re strong believers that collaboration is a key driving force for Australia’s aerospace future, and Hypersonix recently partnered with Gilmour Space Technologies to conduct vibration and thermal characterisation testing at their Common User Facility!

Testing spanned across two days on the vibration table and another half day for data processing, with thermal conditions ranging from 10°C to 60°C, capturing critical insights on how our hardware behaves under the demanding environment of hypersonic stresses.

This is a small but meaningful step forward for the DART program, and a reminder that the Australian aerospace ecosystem is stronger when we build it together. We’re proud to be working alongside leading sovereign innovators like Gilmour, who support our unified mission of advancing hypersonic capabilities - more testing updates coming soon!
